For those in the deep foundation drilling business,
sourcing the right size and quantity of tools for each
project can be a dilemma because each project can be
different and equipment availability can be limited.
FDS Foundation Drilling Services Inc. (FDS) says it has a
solution: why not rent, rather than buy the equipment?
“That way, you can get the right sizes and quantity for each
project without having to invest lots of capital for each project.
In addition, you don’t have to wait for several weeks or
sometimes months for your equipment,” said Paul Sandberg,
vice president of FDS.
COMPANY PROFILE
Based in Toronto, FDS is a speciality rental house for drilling
tools and casings for the deep foundation construction
industry. It was founded in July 2019 to service foundation
drilling firms in Canada and the U.S., and although it’s only
been around a year and a half, the business is continuously
growing with plans to open a new location on the West Coast
in the very near future.
“We’re expanding very rapidly,” said Sandberg. “We’re
really focused on growing throughout North America, so the
West Coast will only be the next step with more branches in
the U.S.A. and Canada to follow very soon after that.”
